<p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='844800' first='Tarjuan' last='Johnson'] - RB - 2026 - Carver HS</em></strong> <strong><em>/ @TarjuanJohnson</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Johnson is a balanced runner with good combination of wiggle and lower body strength. Possesses good initial burst with natural explosion and start-and- stop ability to make guys miss and can turn on the jets in a flash. During drills he displayed quick feet which will allow him to pick through defenses. He has solid hands and body control, which can make him a reliable receiver.</p>

<p><strong><em>Omar Holland - RB - 2026 - Villa HS</em></strong> <strong><em>/ @Omarholland22</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>During drills and 1v1, Holland displayed creativity with patience, quick feet, and smooth footwork to easily change direction and make sharp cuts to elude defenders in space. Very good lateral agility; difficult to square up in tight areas with his frame. Holland is a slippery runner with good acceleration, this skill would give him the ability to not get caught from behind by defenders. </p>

<p><strong><em>Brandon White - RB - 2026 - St. Edwards HS</em></strong> </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>White has a compact build and a naturally low center of gravity. Ran smoothly, with excellent balance, throughout his drills. This will give White the ability to run through traffic, allowing him to squeeze through for yardage. I also saw that White runs with a good forward lean, this will give him the ability to consistently fall forward on his rushing attempts.</p>

<p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='681194' first='Andre' last='Gianopoulos'] - RB - 2026 - Paulding County HS</em></strong> <strong><em>/ @AndreG_31</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Gianopoulos is a well build athlete with good acceleration which allowed him run away from linebackers effortlessly in 1v1's. He has quick feet and a good first step. He flashes initial burst and good lateral quickness to sidestep defenders during individual drills and 1v1's. </p>

<p><strong><em>Joevon Bautista - RB - 2026 - Dutchtown HS</em></strong> <strong><em>/ @JoevonBautista9</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Bautista is compact runner, he has a rare blend of balance, agility and instincts. Shows a surprising burst throughout his drill. He can plant his foot in the ground and explode, showing impressive straight-line speed.</p>
